===== Michael, I think this is a exelent image. Don't be so hard on yourself. It is definitly one of the top 4 in mu opinion. ===== Now don't you wish you had a faster computer? ===== Good idea, and a very nice saber. The only thing I don't like about this picture is the floor - the tiles should be either smaller or more bumpy, as the slight wavy reflection looks really odd, IMHO. ===== If you want to use povray 2.2 files in piov 3.0, try using the command line setting +MV2.2 (in windoze pov, use the 'edit settings' thingo and add it :)) ===== Very nice rendering of a lightsaber. Try changing the position of the camera (or the position of the lightsaber) is such a way that you can see more of the beam of light. It would probably be better if the full beam was visible, including its tip (which should be round-shaped). Also, where is that "bzzzzt" sound? ;-) ===== Good modeling, nice textures. ===== Wow! This would make a great background for my desktop! ===== I love this one, It would have been neat to see some dents or sometihng in the lightsabre so it didn't look quite so perfect and new. Might have also been neat to see some reflections hinting to what was holding the sabre before. ===== REAL Nice. The metals are maybe just a little bit too bumpy. The variation in the floor really makes this work. Dirty it up a little and it would be very photo-realistic. ===== Excellent, gorgeous image, with wonderful detail and pleasing composition. The tiles, the modelling, the colors, the textures, all great! ===== Notable for modelling
